SONIC EXCITER SX3040 User Manual

Due to the small number of SX3040 controls, this is an easy processor to operate.
Perform the following steps:
1)  Connect the unit according to the application as described in section 3.2.

2)  Switch on all devices (amplifier and loudspeaker last) and ensure that the 

IN/OUT  switch  

(7)

  on the SX3040 is illuminated, i.e. that the unit is working 

and all controls are set to “MIN”. For series connection set the MIX controls to 

the middle positions; for parallel connection set them to “MAX” (see sections 

3.2.1 and 3.2.2).

3)  Turn the DRIVE control  

(1)

  until the desired bass saturation effect is 

achieved and the green LED regularly lights up when peak levels occur.

4)  Turn the TUNE control  

(2)

  to specify the frequency range for processing.

5)  Turn the HARMONICS control  

(5)

  until the desired enhancement effect in 

the high-frequency range is achieved.

6)  Turn the TUNE control  

(4)

  to specify the frequency range for processing.

7)  To compare the original and processed signals, repeatedly press the IN/OUT 

button. Then adjust the dry/wet balance as desired.

8)  Repeat steps 3) to 7) until you are satisfied with the result.

The BEHRINGER SONIC EXCITER SX3040 requires 1 U of height for installation 

in a 19-inch rack. Please make sure that you leave around 10 cm for the rear 

connections. For installation of the unit in a rack please use M6 machine screws 

and nuts.

There are various ways to integrate the SX3040 into your setup. Depending on 

the application you will need different connecting cables, and these will be 

discussed in the following section.

4.2.1  Cabling with jack cables
To operate the SX3040 in series with other equipment, you will need standard 

commercial ¼" jack cables, often referred to as instrument cables or patch cables. 
These cables have a ¼" TS jack plug at each end. Connect the inputs of the 

equipment with the corresponding outputs of each of the other devices.

 TS jack plugs

If your other equipment has balanced inputs, use a balanced switched cable 

with two stereo jack plugs at the balanced outputs of the SX3040. These cables 

provide a high level of security against interference signals such as noise 

interference from power cables, and should be used for all long cable routes. 

For connection of balanced and unbalanced plugs,

ring and sleeve have to be bridged at the stereo plug.

Alternatively, you can use professional XLR cables with an XLR socket on one side 

and an XLR plug on the other side. This cable connection is the most reliable both 

electrically and mechanically.

For unbalanced use, pin 1 and pin 3 

have to be bridged

1 = ground/shield

2 = hot (+ve)

3 = cold (-ve)
